Any other option before I try that? If I try to upgrade ext-2 to 3 will i lose everything on the card?
:banghead:

Sorry for the late reply, but when you flashed Decks, did you wipe the sd-ext also?
And yes you will lose everything on the card.
But you can transfer everything from the card to the computer, partition it, then transfer everything back.
When using DTa2sd, you should be partitioned to ext-3.

Yes I did. Was I not supposed to?
Yes you were supposed to. So we're good there. :thumbup:

I wiped and partitioned the sd card. Rebooted and still nothing. What can I do ? Do I need to reflash the ROM?

Got it working, I downloaded the dt script from the decks thread on xda. Installed and Viola! Probably should've done that to begin with.
Thanks Mikestony for all the help.

I registered my old EVO with Net10. Thanks to your guide I was able to root my HTC EVO and install the custom rom you recommended and during the installation process it updated the network settings and after all day of trying to get Net10 to work on it, that rom made it happen. I just made multiple calls with wifi turned off and I have 6/6 bars in my house where with Sprint I had 1, AT&T 2, T-mobile 1-2. This guide saved alot of frustration in our house with phone reception as well as money on the bill. That Rom you recommended is also awesome and runs on the phone better than the stock. Lightning fast. Faster than my dual core galaxy phone. Thank you.
Welcome Leecane!!
Glad you got it working!!

WELCOME TO AF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
glad the guide helped you and congrats on being rooted.....welcome to the darkside!!!!!!!!
what rom and kernel are you on? the smart devs a long time ago were able to add hdmi mirroring into a custom kernel.....i believe that all of the newer custom kernels will have this feature.
you can get most of the roms and kernels here:http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all-things-root/618281-list-utilities-apps-roms-kernels-og-evo.html
- now i have not updated this list in a very long while and i'm not sure if the links to these roms and kernels are still good or not.
- if you find any that are no longer good please let us know so that we can make any adjustments to the list.

ahahaha, thanks youuu thanks youuu...
im just partition ma sd card, and planned to use KWIQ_ICS_001.zip found here
[rom][4.0.4] KWIQ-ICS [4/17/12][beta][stable] - xda-developers
coz i need ics to continue ma clash of clans game progress
and for sense i aim PrimeXL_v4.0r44.zip found on here
[ROM]-║▌=$Prime XL 3D$=║▌-[SVN-DEC10][2.3.5][Sense 3.5] - xda-developers
i think evo 4G didnt get official ICS..i cant find any sense rom with android 4.0 based...
but now still on stock rom..does mirroring hdmi (what shown on fone=shown on TV) simple just plug mini hdmi cable into tv hdmi?
im afraid ma hdmi port is broken..coz last night on stock rom, i plug both cable on phone n tv..but nothing shown on tv....
it i not the rom, but the kernel that has hdmi mirroring. and yes that is what hdmi mirroring means. whatever is on the phone will be mirrored on the tv......however you need to flash the appropriate kernel.....not sure if there is a ics kernel or not....can't remember, but i'm sure that there is.ahahaha, thanks youuu thanks youuu...

again you need to flash a custom kernel....once you do that it should be automatic.

ooohhhh.....cool info..
im instal kwiq ics
[rom][4.0.4] KWIQ-ICS [4/17/12][beta][stable] - Page 18 - xda-developers
..but i cant find playstore on app drawer...when i install gapps (GAPPS ICS 3-30-12 )as instructed..it only show a bunch of ads( i din instal ads, but filename exactly same "[Full HD] flat Atom theme.apk"
...im flash PrimeXL_v4.0r44.zip now...let see if i luck...
maybe it was a bad download of gapps. delete the file and re-download gapps and try to install it again.
